Historical AUM and employee figures reflect available SEC Form ADV filings under this CRD. Filing gaps may reflect registration status changes, dormant periods, state registration periods, firm restructuring, or other reporting changes. Rialytix does not interpolate missing periods.

Current profile metrics reflect a newer SEC ADV filing than the latest point shown in the historical chart. The chart will update once that filing is added to the ADV history dataset.
